Role of periodic table elements in advanced energy storage devices

Every electronic device required energy to operate. Most of the electronic devices are consume stored energy. Energy can be stored in the device like batteries, fuel cells, and capacitors. Elements of the periodic table are playing their role significantly in such energy storage devices. In this review article, different elements are reviewed with different methods that how efficiently these are working to make storage possible. An element like lithium in LIBs can be stored up to 4 volts of power which is the strongest behavior ever. It has earned huge attention in the commercial market all across. Carbon with nitrogen can give a high charge capacity of 487 mAh/g with retention of over 80%. So, it has high capacity load performance. Na-ion batteries are used for large-scale energy storage. These have up to 372 mAh/g storage capacity. K-ion batteries have fast ionic conductivity so these can have up to 710 mAh/g storage capacity.Ca-ion shows the impressive character toward its feature and gives storage upto 200 mAh/g. Cobalt batteries also show devoting behavior and can be stored up to a capacity 707 mAh/g at the current density of 90 mAh/g. Zn-ions show tremendous character in an aqueous medium. These batteries have a storage capacity of upto 810 mAh/g. Sulfur hybrid battery with lithium gives a reversible capacity of more than 900 mAh/g which is exceptional. All of these and more elements have very much promising behavior for storage with multiple cycles. This review article builds interest and trust in these elements.
